//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
We miss an optzn when lowering divide by some constants. For example:
int test(int x) { return x/10; }
We produce:
_test: ## @test
## BB#0: ## %entry
movslq %edi, %rax
imulq $1717986919, %rax, %rax ## imm = 0x66666667
movq %rax, %rcx
shrq $63, %rcx
** shrq $32, %rax
** sarl $2, %eax
addl %ecx, %eax
ret
The two starred instructions could be replaced with a "sarl $34, %rax". This
occurs in 186.crafty very frequently.
